The recommended input capacitor value is 1uF to 10uF, and the type should be a low-ESR ceramic capacitor, such as X5R or X7R, to ensure stable operation and minimize noise.
Ensure good thermal design and layout practices, such as providing adequate heat sinking, using thermal vias, and keeping the device away from heat sources. Also, consider using a thermal pad or heat sink to dissipate heat.
The maximum output current of the TPS60300DGS is 300mA, but it's recommended to derate the output current based on the ambient temperature and the device's thermal design to ensure reliable operation.
Follow good layout practices, such as keeping the input and output traces separate, using a solid ground plane, and minimizing loop areas. Also, consider using shielding or a metal can to reduce EMI radiation.
Yes, the TPS60300DGS is suitable for battery-powered devices due to its low quiescent current (IQ) of 15uA, which helps to extend battery life. However, ensure that the input voltage is within the recommended range and that the device is properly shut down when not in use.
